You don’t have to give up pickles if you’re living a low sodium lifestyle! Check out this list of the best low sodium pickles you can buy!
Navigating a low sodium lifestyle doesn’t mean you have to give up all of your favorite foods. While some things may be off limits, depending on your doctor’s instructions and daily sodium limits, low sodium versions of many foods are available at your grocery store and online. I was thrilled to find low and lower sodium pickles to satisfy my husband’s occasional pickle craving. (Click here for more low sodium snack ideas!)
Standard pickles can be extremely high in sodium, and lower sodium options make it possible for him to enjoy pickles on his burger or alongside a sandwich. Vlasic Large Kosher Dill Wholes contain 220 mg sodium per serving, which is half a pickle, according to their website. That means one pickle would use up more than 400 mg of your daily sodium limit.
